Arch Biopartners Inc. ("Arch" or the "Company") (CNSX:ACH)(OTC:FOIFF) and its
subsidiary Arch Cancer Therapeutics ("ACT") today announced Arch scientists Dr.
Donna Senger and Dr. Stephen Robbins have been awarded $561,251 of peer reviewed
research funding to support ongoing work in the area of malignant glioma and the
development of brain tumour cell targeting technology. 


This funding award is from a recent Alberta Cancer Research Operating Grants
Competition sponsored by Alberta Innovates - Health Solutions (previously the
Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research). The funds are scheduled to be
released from the Alberta Cancer Prevention Legacy Fund in three annual tranches
starting July 1, 2011, pending final administrative approval from the Minister
of Alberta Health and Wellness.


The money will support work for the project entitled "Characterization and
Therapeutic Targeting of p75NTR in Glioma Tumourigenesis", that includes studies
to further define and develop peptides that target, locate and inhibit invasive
glioma cells. These studies are in addition to recently completed proof of
principle studies in the area of targeting brain tumour initiating cells which
are currently undergoing peer review.


About Arch Cancer Therapeutics 

ACT is an Alberta corporation wholly owned by Arch Biopartners. ACT's objective
is to develop non-invasive diagnostic and therapeutic molecules for brain cancer
utilizing new and innovative approaches. 


Despite intensive research over the past 30 years, clinical outcomes for
patients with malignant glioma have not changed substantially with average
survival rates remaining at a dismal 12-15 months. ACT's proprietary molecules
are specialized peptides that identify and target brain tumor initiating cells
("BTIC") and invasive brain cancer cells, two disease reservoirs that are not
normally seen using current state of the art diagnostic imaging techniques.
